2nd Tump of the day after Knockmountain. After walking along the public road past North Glen Farm, a good track heads northeast up the hill from the road at NS 3845571041. The track goes most of the way up the hill before petering out but just keep going up, past a couple of lochans and eventually you'll see the trig. Blue skies, awesome views, but very windy. Dropped off the hill eastwards before continuing my circuit towards Craig Muir. | mattymatt | 21/02/2021 |
